Hear Alison Clark Prof Alison Clark clarify qualities of 'Slow' learning with crucial language: context; patterns; connections; complex; non-linear; engaging the full range of senses and the whole mind;...and elegant! #TransformingEd21 STLSAshford

Horrendous.

So just hours after the great and the good were last seen using the River Mimram (a chalk stream) as a backdrop here what it looks like today. This morning. Polluted. It's turned purple. So much for fine words and speeches all of it devoid of intent and delivering even less.

Here is just one example of the full horror that Gov is facilitating. Let me remind you, in 2020 water companies spent over 1,500,000 hours, on over 400,000 separate occasions dumping sewage into the environment. TU Hayling Sewage Watch for the footage. youtube.com/watch?v=JpmB56…

The truth is that after five and a half years it all comes down to this. #freenazanin

Here we go my Froebelian friends! On United Nations Children's Day we talk about slowing down acceleration of childhood Froebel Trust #urgencyofslow Prof Alison Clark Dr Chris Pascal @sharoncolilles @CriticalEYears

#urgencyofslow Thinking about resources / materials - artefacts in a setting are really important symbols in conversations to support children’s sense of self, their ethnic and cultural identities. @ sharoncolilles shares her PhD findings

#urgencyofslow children don’t use same terminology - their constructions of ethnic identity are different, unique, creative. @sharoncolilles asks us to slow down, pay attention to what & how children can help us learn their perspectives & act for inclusive, anti-racist practice

This reminder is so important and timely. #urgencyofslow webinar offered inspiration to ECE practitioners to find their voice, have confidence to make change and co construct new possibilities with babies, children and their families.

Thank you so much for sharing, such a rich understanding of literacies here

....nobody told me it's #WorldAlgaeDay #seaweed
